There are three ways you can posts scripts, these are:

• Inline code
• Attachments
• Download system

Each has different advantages and disadvantages. In general you should use:

• Inline code - for short code snippets
• Attachments - for more complicated code larger than a page.
• Downloads system - for projects or complex libraries

Inline Code

• Best for entering short snippets of code
• Easiest for other users to see
• May be accidentally modified by forum upgrades or when re-editing your post - it's happened before...

Inline code is entered using the "Add Code" button in the toolbar and after posting appears with syntax highlighting like this:

; This is some AutoIt code
MsgBox(4096, "Message", "Hello there!")

Code over around 50 lines will appear in a scrollable box. At this point it becomes more difficult for other users to work with and you should consider an attachment instead.

Attachments

• Best for long pieces of code, entire programs, or multiple files
• Unlikely to be accidentally lost or modified by forum upgrades or when re-editing your post
• Counts against your global attachment allocation
• Can be seen in the "username / My Attachments" part of your profile, along with the number of downloads

Multiple attachments can be added to a post. As attachments are stored as complete files in the filesystem, they are more robust than inline code snippets.

Downloads System

• Best for very long and complicated projects or libraries that are of significant use to the community
• Uses a different part of the forum that is optimised for file downloads and features screenshots, change logs, download counts, etc.
• Does not count against your global attachment allocation
